Disgusting, Abuse Of Power - Suppliers, Supplier

I'm not one to moan on here, especially since Amazon generally do not care, you're just a whisper in the wind, and one of MANY, who go through hell with them. I've sold on Amazon for almost 2 years, i've paid them almost £1million pound in their fees. I've now been asked for my suppliers supplier information for 3 brand approval requests, yes i've seen it all before, - but I've had various invoices approved from this supplier in the past, next thing my supplier contacted me to advise Amazon have contacted them to purchase directly, and also to gain their supplier information.

The whole process is backwards, they require an invoice to request approval - so you have to physically buy and own the stock and get invoiced. Yet they point and laugh when they reject you once you physically hold it, and most of the time can't return it.

It's a complete abuse of Power, and they've already been taken to court over this! Yet they are STILL here doing the same thing. Requesting our Suppliers, Supplier information - for their own gain!!

We work with a distributor that has been established for 30 years, beyond when Amazon was formed, one of the most authentic, genuine businesses in existence. RARELY ANYBODY, is ever going to be able to gain their suppliers supplier information. WHO WOULD DO THAT?

That's some of the most safeguarded information in the industry, it's a businesses most sensitive information surely! Yet big bully Amazon throw their weight around, trying to gain all the information constantly for their own advantage. Masking it with -" we want to make sure goods are authentic" - Yeah yeah we've heard it all before Amazon, we get it.

One day, some how some where, it's going to come crashing down on them. No company can bully the entire market, their sellers, and abuse their power for this long and get away with it forever.

One good thing? -> It sure ignites that fire in your belly to start looking elsewhere from this increasingly dreadful place. Once loved this and all it offered, i've never felt more deflated and stressed.

Amazon have slowly over time just turned us against them so much from the amount of regulations you have to adhere to to the auto refunding to the not caring about us sellers to stuff like this..

i would get all this evidence, enough so you have proof they have done this and see where you stand.. im sure some solicitors would find a case here for some kind of missconduct/monopoly kind of thing

Mp is a good shout too.

We have been selling here for over 10 years. After requesting supplier invoices when querying stock discrepancies they contacted our supplier wanting to deal directly with them - thankfully we have a good enough relationship that they said no, but it happened.
